DM) Lucas – 8
Strong performance from the ever-reliable Brazilian, who was a strong and reassuring presence in front of the back four. Replaced by Gerrard as Liverpool pushed for a winner.
CM) Jordan Henderson – 6
Steady and controlled performance in midfield. Captained the team, and led his players well in the heat of the midfield. Good intensity moving forward
CM) Joe Allen – 6
Missed from close range as Liverpool pushed forward in the second half. Passing was reliable and kept the team ticking over.
